Ahstinf Ixsnhc I’m aware of that. I’m saying in like a scenario where we weren’t the number one global superpower with the most powerful military in the world. I mean of course it wouldn’t happen the way things are right now.
If the US did make its landing in Scotland and work its way down wouldn't they be slowed or even stopped by the flock of sheep going across the single one lane road?
Without a, Patton, there to personally shoot each one that blocked his convoy, I would think it possible? 🤔 (In the movie about him, that I've seen many times, I still hate the moment when he shoots the poor donkey. But he loves his dog.)
fun fact..... the US space force has the second largest spaceforce in the world..... second only to the spinning rocket rides for little kids at your local fairground.
@@TwistedSisler total aircraft doesn't account for "air force" because while the army has combat capable aircraft it's mostly transport and other aircraft. The navy and air force have more combat and mission support aircraft
@@swarley39 It's complex. The Army has a ton of helicopters, including thousands of attack helicopters. The Army is slightly smaller than the Navy or Air Force however, but is still a top 5 air force. (All of this ignores that the Air Force is itself a spin off of the US Army).
@@saltyhanzomain1980 I'm pretty sure N. Ireland, Scotland, and maybe Wales would allow US troops to land and offer beer and party, then eventually attack England hahaha
I mean a good reason why the US also spends a lot more than most other countries is because one the US military has one of the biggest volunteer militaries in the world (looking at you north korea!), and the R&D of the US for military technology is far greater capacity. Most other nations usually just reverse engineer the US's tech so their R&D is lesser. Of course still accounting for that, the US would still be greater than multiple countries combined
@@w925gaming6 That's true, but America is still forking over most of the cash and most of the time their facilities especially with military technology that they keep in house. For example the F22 was never given out. The F35 only given out to allies and was researched all in house. Basic material properties and such that is fair, but most of the in house big equipment and weaponry are normally done all in house research

Brits when there is no war: Chill relax. Appeasement Tea. Brits during war: We shall NEVER SURRENDER WE SHALL DEFEND OUR ISLAND HOME WHATEVER THE COST MAY BE.
It is a lot easier to defend an island, than live in a country that has borders with potential enemies, like France or Belgium, which has numerous countries around them. The water that surrounds the UK acts as a buffer zone.
@@catlover1986 Depending on one's standard of living, a lot of petty crimes can be rooted to poverty or people not attaining the first two levels of Maslow's hierarchy of needs. People will be pushed to do something they don't want to do out of survival and desperation. With that said, even if we completely shut out our borders, we will always have crime within our society, unless, we fulfill the needs of all members of our society. With that said, it also doesn't help that there's uncertainty and distrust towards illegal immigrants because there's no way we can truly track them coming in, and filter who are coming in. I won't dabble into politics but I do agree that in the larger scheme of things, it's not safe when we just let anyone into our country, but I wouldn't pit illegal immigrants to most of our crime here in the US. We have enough going on locally and within our own communities already haha
Came here straight from your Revolutionary War video, how the tables have turned! (jk haha) In all seriousness despite what it might seem (cough, media), the average person here in the States loves a good bit of banter as well. Besides that, I couldn't imagine this sort of scenario ever taking place, for loads of reasons. Love your videos, great work brother!
The trick is to get Swedish submarine technology. It’s so “primitive” that they could take down American destroyers without detection. I’m not even joking 😂
Canadians have already dug tunnels under most of America so we can undermine them whenever we need to..... like in 2024 when Trump comes back even worse eh.
You may do more of these. You should know that edutainment vids like these often don't have any surprise endings. The interest is in the hypotheticals, review of the stats, and the analysis. Some of Binkov's vids have less obvious endings though.
After recent events, I think it's more likely the Brits could politely ask for another go at running the American government, no shots fired... and I think most of the population would vote for them to give it a second try. It couldn't be worse than what we got now. Good reaction, thanks for making it.
@@charlottedrolet9000 I mean to be the worlds policemen you have to be several leagues above or you risk the chance of being caught up to. But I agree the education sucks.
US & UK Have a mother/daughter relationship. Mother was the hot stuff till she gave birth. Mom kept teaching, daughter thought it was being told twhat to do. Daughter got angry and talked back to mom and stopped listening to mom. But Now, even after all that, daughter grew up and realized mom knew what she was talking about and now they can sit at the same table and talk while one drinks coffee and the other has her tea. Cheers
Also what he didn't mention is. Our carriers are Nuclear powered. Meaning they can be a sea for YEARS before needing to head back to port. No fuel needed. All you need is supply.
One important tidbit is that before any carriers or naval vessels arrived, B-2 bombers would have taken off from mainland USA and dropped bombs on strategic locations, similar to in Baghdad
To add on to your comment about aircraft carriers, imagine refitting and upgrading an entire city every 18 months with new tech, software, and hardware. You have installation, testing, then training for the crew to use it.
The British burned the Whitehouse, and the US burned York Canada. The War of 1812 was a stalemate. Territory didn't changed hands, because no one won. The UK performed badly at the end, and gave into US pre-war demands, and both sides signed off on the pre-war status
The US Army's specialized 10th Mountain Division used to do exercises simulating political chaos in Canada necessitating, for some outlandish reason, a US seizure of Ottawa!
It takes a U S Aircraft Carrier 7 days to get from Virginia to the Arabian sea not weeks. Aircraft carriers ( The United States has 11 Nuclear powered Carriers which can sail for 25 years without refueling) are some of the fastest Naval ships. Each Carrier has approximately 80 combat aircraft and 20 or so Support Aircraft.Our Bomber Fleet can attack almost anywhere from American Bases and return in one mission. They could sit off England's coast and launch Conventional Cruise Missiles against any targets in the UK. Before even thinking of landing troops American Naval and Air Force assets would "Soften" up and destroy Strategic, Industrial and other Supply lines before invading.
@@JamesCornwall95 thank you! Sorry forgot to mention that the video is by Wendover productions. theres another video with the same title so i just wanted to make it clear!
I can never doubt the tenacity and strength of the British people, that I learned from the pictures of citizens inside bomb shelters. The smiled and played cards and supported those around them as Nazi bombers destroyed their cities and their homes. Those simple pictures and the evacuations of dunkirk is all that's needed to know how the British people come together from hardships. Its something I think our countries share and I could probably assure you there would be wide scale riots and revolts inside the U.S if they did this. As much as we are the "rebellious child" England is still out historic mother country and after everything our two countries have been through, standing shoulder to shoulder in the trenches, storming the beaches of normandy, england's response after 911 and mourning with us, this is something we faced together and hasn't been forgotten by us on this side of the pond.
We actually have 20+ carriers for some reason they don't count our smaller carriers when are little ones are just as big as other countries carriers Not only this but if we're in a major battle our 2 million military service can swell up to 20 million plus with the draft.
Also they don't say anything about the US stealth bombers either but you don't have to worry because we would never attack our brothers in arms. LoL I mean this is only for fun. All and what ever we show the world we have stuff to beat that we try to keep 50 years ahead of what we show. Top secret scary stuff !!! What the world sees the US spend on military services is 700 billion dollars we don't show you how much money goes into our top secret programs.
The distance doesn't matter because the nuclear machines can stay operating for well over a year without ever stopping..supply is the only reason for stopping but there would be supply ships doing most of the running back&fourth. Realistically this would never happen though as Britain is are closest friends for a very long time..it'd take some pearl harbor type shit to even have a thought of going to war.
I so enjoyed this video. As an American we agree this video subject matter was rather unrealistic to say the least, but watching your highly salty reaction to it was hilarious and highly entertaining. Im crying....LOL! This is why you just gotta love the Brits. That typical reaction of when a Brit gets his face pushed into the mud and he comes up stubbornly and loudly cursing whatever "bloody wanker" is responsible. Haha, dont ever change UK, dont ever change.
The United States has a population of 320 million and England has 60 million. Remember during WW2 America supplied it's Allies with most of its Armaments and other supplies. If the war was a long drawn out affair, the United States has a significant fleet of Mothballed Naval Vessels and Hundreds of Aircraft sitting in Arizona that could be put back into service or Cannibalized for parts. These deactivated aircraft include F16, F15, F14, F18 and even F4's. Once America got a foothold in Britain we would send troops and supplies. The U.S. uses Civilian Airliners as troop transports during war, when I was deployed to Operation Desert Shield/Storm I flew over in a civilian Airliner.
Key yet. China has plans to become a number one super power and even though America makes stupid mistakes. I think most agree China being the lone super power would mean bad things
You should check out “could America invade Russia if it wanted too?” Much more interesting and fair, as UK didn’t stand a chance and would get absolutely pounded- 🤣
As a US combat vet who has met a fair number of Brits while on deployments, I can say that the average British soldier is slightly better than your average US soldier just by their tenacity alone. With the recent conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq, the Brits did a bayonet charge on fortified enemy positions, on two separate occasions... and won. Most of the time the US would just call for air/artillery support before moving in or declare the position unattainable and retreat. We may have the largest budget, but technology can only carry you so far in war, especially a protracted one. The only reason we became the only military superpower in the world is our ability to form AND KEEP alliances. Without our allies we would not be able to sustain such power.
This was comedy gold man, couldn’t have done a better job if you were a professional actor. You earned the like, comment and sub in exchange for the salt and soul 😂
this is interesting because i just went to falcon field park. it is a retired air force training ground in my hometown. I saw the memorial there. It had all the names of the soldiers who trained their and then died in the war. There were more RAF pilots than USAF pilots on the memorial. no way in hell would we invade britain.
Also you keep forgetting that we as citizens have modern rifles stockpiles of ammunition and body armor and night vision capability and it wouldn’t be hard for factory production to make sure everyone has the best equipment possible and half the country 1/3 would make pretty decent snipers and plus a million ex military and former special forces and the culture of guns and the war mindset, I wouldn’t want to invade mainland United States and I am American and most people forget about the weather and it’s a fight separate from invasion.
He is right about the upsets. That and the US relies way too heavily on technology. The brits probably do as well. The resistance in the Middle East knows that and that’s why they give so much problems.
I’d say we’re evenly matched, although it can’t be denied that the US has the largest and most well trained military force in the world. The UK also isn’t too different, as I think they rank just behind the US in military size. Although that is for ground forces, as the UK’s naval fleet is severely lacking compared to the US. But I can’t imagine a world where this would happen could even be possible, as I think we still are allies when it comes to war even if we don’t agree on politics? I would need some conformation on that because i’ve heard some, lets say, unfriendly things from the UK for some time now.
Best strategy would be to invade northern Ireland first There would be some allies on the ground and Air Bases could be set up to attack the rest of the United Kingdom and use it as a staging area for an invasion
This was fun to watch as someone from the US but I can imagine I would be salty if the video was reversed. Gotta love the UK though. 🇺🇸🇬🇧
It was a hard reaction to balance but it's all in good humour 😂love bro ❤️

They should do “could the UK invade the US?” 🤣
I would like to see a scenario video. Canada Russia China and Mexico. Invade mainland USA.
@@tommccan1866 That would be a pretty lame video 😂
Mexico is the only country that would reach the US border, but they'd be conquered in a week. The Russians and Chinese wouldn't get within 1000 miles of our coast.
simple answer; nope, no one has troop transport
@@tommccan1866 omg as a American we will be destroyed from all 4 sides
I could totally see millennials burning our own country down before they allowed our military to invade Hogwarts. LOL
This comment is brilliant 😂😂
Us millennials love our country, what you talking about?! We just have a different viewpoint about war, and critiquing our country to be better doesn't equate to wanting our country to burn and crumble, or even hating our country. It's actually the complete opposite. Now, are there people who feel that way, regardless of age and what not? Sure, but those I'd say are anarhcists.
@@alistairt7544 Twas a joke, bro. Chill
To me is unthinkable. I can't imagine. It's way more likely we will be fighting alongside each others. We're brothers.
I bloody hope so 😂😂
Here is the Sub. I saw your pain...
and I loved it! fantastic content I could see the heat in your face watching. From an American hilarious. But no seriously I don't see the 2 countries fighting anytime soon.
Aw, we like you Brits. If we're going to invade somewhere, we should invade Canada, send them to Australia, and bring the Australians to Canada.
Why the swap ? Is it because of Canada's political leaning ? I heard they are a friendly people 😂😂
@@JamesCornwall95 - LOL. In the dictionary definition of "sanctimonious," it says "see: Canadians." (Of course, the same is true of "inferiority complex.")
hahahahahah
Love your vids man thanks for the insight into British thinking
Love bro ❤️
Brits when there is no war:
Chill relax. Appeasement Tea.
Brits during war:
We shall NEVER SURRENDER
WE SHALL DEFEND OUR ISLAND HOME
WHATEVER THE COST MAY BE.
That cost is usually paid by the US. The UK only recently paid off (a fraction) of their war debts
It is a lot easier to defend an island, than live in a country that has borders with potential enemies, like France or Belgium, which has numerous countries around them. The water that surrounds the UK acts as a buffer zone.
@@catlover1986 Depending on one's standard of living, a lot of petty crimes can be rooted to poverty or people not attaining the first two levels of Maslow's hierarchy of needs. People will be pushed to do something they don't want to do out of survival and desperation. With that said, even if we completely shut out our borders, we will always have crime within our society, unless, we fulfill the needs of all members of our society. With that said, it also doesn't help that there's uncertainty and distrust towards illegal immigrants because there's no way we can truly track them coming in, and filter who are coming in. I won't dabble into politics but I do agree that in the larger scheme of things, it's not safe when we just let anyone into our country, but I wouldn't pit illegal immigrants to most of our crime here in the US. We have enough going on locally and within our own communities already haha
Good reaction brother l enjoy the saltiness make me laugh 🤣 so good I enjoy your reactions. Hi from across the pond Texas.
Came here straight from your Revolutionary War video, how the tables have turned! (jk haha) In all seriousness despite what it might seem (cough, media), the average person here in the States loves a good bit of banter as well. Besides that, I couldn't imagine this sort of scenario ever taking place, for loads of reasons. Love your videos, great work brother!
Love your humor 😂
I like this guys vibe lol, now ubscribed🙏
The trick is to get Swedish submarine technology. It’s so “primitive” that they could take down American destroyers without detection. I’m not even joking 😂
Canadians have already dug tunnels under most of America so we can undermine them whenever we need to..... like in 2024 when Trump comes back even worse eh.
@@JuandeFucaU you really think people from America would let people from America go through tunnels?
You may do more of these. You should know that edutainment vids like these often don't have any surprise endings. The interest is in the hypotheticals, review of the stats, and the analysis. Some of Binkov's vids have less obvious endings though.
Yo, this video is too good. You've got to do more high reactions!
10:50 "And all of this didn't even include the US air force" 😆🤣
another great video tho love the reaction
Really appreciate bro 💪🏼
You can just see that "hope" in his eyes slowly begin to fade the longer you watch.
I'm fairly new to your channel and I've found I love your videos. You've got yourself a new sub.
Thankyou brother 💪🏼
After recent events, I think it's more likely the Brits could politely ask for another go at running the American government, no shots fired... and I think most of the population would vote for them to give it a second try. It couldn't be worse than what we got now. Good reaction, thanks for making it.
18:54 had me dying, Love from across the pond my friend 🇺🇸🇬🇧
me just watching this in the US, and thinking, "Damn, we spend a lot on our military>" It is almost absurd.
It's like damn bro who you racing ? You won already 😂
@@JamesCornwall95 so true, so true
Facts! I was thinking the same thing! Can we put some of those funds into education?
@@charlottedrolet9000 I mean to be the worlds policemen you have to be several leagues above or you risk the chance of being caught up to. But I agree the education sucks.
I don’t want to be that guy but if the rest of NATO Pulled their weight we wouldn’t have to spend so much on our military.
Love the video
Is your cap cut in half dude? Cheers from Texas btw
Yup no cap 🧢 😂and glad to have you Brother 💪🏼
Well I had a great time watching this!
Haha thankyou bro 💪🏼
Short Answer: Yes
But would we be able to hold it? I don't know
Is it because of the weather ? 😂😂
@@JamesCornwall95 Probably most of us aren't used to UK weather except maybe people from Seattle 😂
@@citymorgue8462 true. we'd send the weirdos from portland. they'd be used to it.
@@maciedixon3983 lolllll
US & UK Have a mother/daughter relationship. Mother was the hot stuff till she gave birth. Mom kept teaching, daughter thought it was being told twhat to do. Daughter got angry and talked back to mom and stopped listening to mom. But Now, even after all that, daughter grew up and realized mom knew what she was talking about and now they can sit at the same table and talk while one drinks coffee and the other has her tea. Cheers
This was so funny bro lol
Also what he didn't mention is. Our carriers are Nuclear powered. Meaning they can be a sea for YEARS before needing to head back to port. No fuel needed. All you need is supply.
Wait....so there's no cap..does the cap come off? lmao is the same hat as the other vids? pretty dope
One important tidbit is that before any carriers or naval vessels arrived, B-2 bombers would have taken off from mainland USA and dropped bombs on strategic locations, similar to in Baghdad
I'll give ya a like for the salt alone lol.
He looks soooo baked. 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
To add on to your comment about aircraft carriers, imagine refitting and upgrading an entire city every 18 months with new tech, software, and hardware. You have installation, testing, then training for the crew to use it.
I appreciate you saying you’re salty because most people would just talk shit
"The Time the British Burned Down the White House" By Buzzfeed Multiplayer. I'm surprised by the fact no territory was lost.
The British burned the Whitehouse, and the US burned York Canada.
The War of 1812 was a stalemate. Territory didn't changed hands, because no one won. The UK performed badly at the end, and gave into US pre-war demands, and both sides signed off on the pre-war status
The US Army's specialized 10th Mountain Division used to do exercises simulating political chaos in Canada necessitating, for some outlandish reason, a US seizure of Ottawa!
love you vids
It takes a U S Aircraft Carrier 7 days to get from Virginia to the Arabian sea not weeks. Aircraft carriers ( The United States has 11 Nuclear powered Carriers which can sail for 25 years without refueling) are some of the fastest Naval ships. Each Carrier has approximately 80 combat aircraft and 20 or so Support Aircraft.Our Bomber Fleet can attack almost anywhere from American Bases and return in one mission. They could sit off England's coast and launch Conventional Cruise Missiles against any targets in the UK. Before even thinking of landing troops American Naval and Air Force assets would "Soften" up and destroy Strategic, Industrial and other Supply lines before invading.
Their actually is a video about the U.S. vs Russia and China which I believe is by The Infographics Show
May you please react to “ how aircraft carriers work” its a very interesting video :)
You got it 💪🏼
@@JamesCornwall95 thank you! Sorry forgot to mention that the video is by Wendover productions. theres another video with the same title so i just wanted to make it clear!
I can never doubt the tenacity and strength of the British people, that I learned from the pictures of citizens inside bomb shelters. The smiled and played cards and supported those around them as Nazi bombers destroyed their cities and their homes. Those simple pictures and the evacuations of dunkirk is all that's needed to know how the British people come together from hardships. Its something I think our countries share and I could probably assure you there would be wide scale riots and revolts inside the U.S if they did this. As much as we are the "rebellious child" England is still out historic mother country and after everything our two countries have been through, standing shoulder to shoulder in the trenches, storming the beaches of normandy, england's response after 911 and mourning with us, this is something we faced together and hasn't been forgotten by us on this side of the pond.
Bro that was one hell of message, love my American brothers ❤️also standing next to 2 of the Knights Templar in your profile pic won me over 😂
@@JamesCornwall95 not complaining just asking,but aren't those hospittaler?
I suggest Feature History's Texas Revolution video
The day we take over the UK I want first dibs on capturing Rod Stewart !!!!! Yayyyyy
We actually have 20+ carriers for some reason they don't count our smaller carriers when are little ones are just as big as other countries carriers
Not only this but if we're in a major battle our 2 million military service can swell up to 20 million plus with the draft.
Also they don't say anything about the US stealth bombers either but you don't have to worry because we would never attack our brothers in arms. LoL I mean this is only for fun. All and what ever we show the world we have stuff to beat that we try to keep 50 years ahead of what we show. Top secret scary stuff !!! What the world sees the US spend on military services is 700 billion dollars we don't show you how much money goes into our top secret programs.
That’s certainly was worth a like, subscribe and comment
Infographics has a USA vs The World video...it's good about 15 min long
We love you guys and I could never see this happening as were practically brothers. I agree, the video is silly.
Love bro 💪🏼❤️
We can probably make the UK a 51st state ;)
You'd be as big as Alabama hahaha just kidding, good video
The distance doesn't matter because the nuclear machines can stay operating for well over a year without ever stopping..supply is the only reason for stopping but there would be supply ships doing most of the running back&fourth. Realistically this would never happen though as Britain is are closest friends for a very long time..it'd take some pearl harbor type shit to even have a thought of going to war.
I so enjoyed this video. As an American we agree this video subject matter was rather unrealistic to say the least, but watching your highly salty reaction to it was hilarious and highly entertaining. Im crying....LOL!
This is why you just gotta love the Brits. That typical reaction of when a Brit gets his face pushed into the mud and he comes up stubbornly and loudly cursing whatever "bloody wanker" is responsible. Haha, dont ever change UK, dont ever change.
Haha it might just be the only acceptable reaction, I appreciate you man 💪🏼❤️
The United States has a population of 320 million and England has 60 million. Remember during WW2 America supplied it's Allies with most of its Armaments and other supplies. If the war was a long drawn out affair, the United States has a significant fleet of Mothballed Naval Vessels and Hundreds of Aircraft sitting in Arizona that could be put back into service or Cannibalized for parts. These deactivated aircraft include F16, F15, F14, F18 and even F4's. Once America got a foothold in Britain we would send troops and supplies. The U.S. uses Civilian Airliners as troop transports during war, when I was deployed to Operation Desert Shield/Storm I flew over in a civilian Airliner.
Just be glad that we are allies and there is no reason we would go against each other
US military spending is roughly $650B as far as I know.
That is crazyyyyyyy
You should whatch the video of America vs the world.
How can you be a hater? YOU MADE US! 😂
Didn't think like that 😂
more worried about an aggressive china...
Haha I would be too
I’m not. China and Russia have both said publicly they cannot take the USA military on YET.
Key yet. China has plans to become a number one super power and even though America makes stupid mistakes. I think most agree China being the lone super power would mean bad things
You should watch some more of his videos
You should check out “could America invade Russia if it wanted too?” Much more interesting and fair, as UK didn’t stand a chance and would get absolutely pounded- 🤣
Sadie it’s me Arthur
America - Hey Britain, how about round three
Britain - How about a nice game of checkers, backgammon or chess instead
America - Yeah.......good idea
As a US combat vet who has met a fair number of Brits while on deployments, I can say that the average British soldier is slightly better than your average US soldier just by their tenacity alone. With the recent conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq, the Brits did a bayonet charge on fortified enemy positions, on two separate occasions... and won. Most of the time the US would just call for air/artillery support before moving in or declare the position unattainable and retreat. We may have the largest budget, but technology can only carry you so far in war, especially a protracted one. The only reason we became the only military superpower in the world is our ability to form AND KEEP alliances. Without our allies we would not be able to sustain such power.
Have you ever seen the island hopping campaign against Japan? If we want an island...we will damn well get it 😂😂😂😂 loved the video
This was comedy gold man, couldn’t have done a better job if you were a professional actor. You earned the like, comment and sub in exchange for the salt and soul 😂
Haha thanks man, means alot !!! 😂
The UK would really have to do something terrible for us attack them like this.
Or discover a significant oil deposit in Scotland
@@brendanharan4501 true.😂😂 pretty much if any big corporation found something of value they wanted. We would find away to make it happen.
this is interesting because i just went to falcon field park. it is a retired air force training ground in my hometown. I saw the memorial there. It had all the names of the soldiers who trained their and then died in the war. There were more RAF pilots than USAF pilots on the memorial. no way in hell would we invade britain.
We have alot of similar things over here, plenty of U.S war memorial that are amazing to look at ❤️
There’s a video out there about the US versus everyone else in the world
I don't quite believe it would be that easy. Carriers are easy targets for modern missles. Id say it's roughly 2x harder than what he is saying.
I'm pretty sure Binkov's done US vs Nato and he's got a few China and Russias. Already got your reaction to US vs the world up next >XD
Also you keep forgetting that we as citizens have modern rifles stockpiles of ammunition and body armor and night vision capability and it wouldn’t be hard for factory production to make sure everyone has the best equipment possible and half the country 1/3 would make pretty decent snipers and plus a million ex military and former special forces and the culture of guns and the war mindset, I wouldn’t want to invade mainland United States and I am American and most people forget about the weather and it’s a fight separate from invasion.
He is right about the upsets. That and the US relies way too heavily on technology. The brits probably do as well. The resistance in the Middle East knows that and that’s why they give so much problems.
I’d say we’re evenly matched, although it can’t be denied that the US has the largest and most well trained military force in the world. The UK also isn’t too different, as I think they rank just behind the US in military size. Although that is for ground forces, as the UK’s naval fleet is severely lacking compared to the US.
But I can’t imagine a world where this would happen could even be possible, as I think we still are allies when it comes to war even if we don’t agree on politics? I would need some conformation on that because i’ve heard some, lets say, unfriendly things from the UK for some time now.
Bercow (ex-speaker of house of commons) would come out of retirement and stop the American Armada with just one syllable.
Best strategy would be to invade northern Ireland first
There would be some allies on the ground and Air Bases could be set up to attack the rest of the United Kingdom and use it as a staging area for an invasion
We spend less than 10% of our entire Budget on the military
